The latest round of Japanese hobby magazine scans have hit the internet, and have provided us with some great images of several upcoming Takara Tomy Transformers figures. Nothing new per say, but these images do reveal that the green redeco of Beast Hunters Deluxe Ratchet is actually a Decepticon! The images include:

Transformers Generations

• TG21 - Autobot Springer
• TG22 - Blitzwing
• TG23 Metroplex
• TG26 Bumblebee
• TG27 Trailcutter & Hoist Two Pack

Transformers Go!

• G08 Budora
• G09 Goradora Set
• G10 Hishomaru
• G19 Deluxe Dececpticon (Beast Hunters Ratchet mold)

UltraPrimal wrote:That Ratchet repaint is actually movie Ratchet who traveled into the Prime universe. He must have sided with the Decepticons because they were the murderous crazy ones, just like his Autobots back home.

Actually, I find it more plausible that it's the weird Shattered Glass Ratchet. Who's the better medic? Better question: who cares?

The resident Rewind... well, half of one

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him )
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

Hardly, the kana still read "Hunter Ratchet". Besides, there's no word on the "Hunters" actually appearing in the anime. Optimus doesn't really count, as he's noting more than a cardboard cutout

Hunter Ratchet is a Decepticon?

We need to see (an English translation of) his bio, please.

Once it comes out, that is.

Prime Ratchet, with Dinobot-ish greebles, in Movie Ratchet's colors, and a insignia? What is going on there?

I quite like that Hun-Grrrr repaint.

Not questioning anyone's translation skills, but are we sure this is Ratchet, and not some other Decepticon with a completely different name and bio? I just can't see this being Ratchet, I can't. I understand how it could be, with Ratchet temporarily helping the Decepticons with the Synthetic Energon formula, but I don't know.

They call me “Tanker Chungus”!

Well, ハンターラチェット = Hantā Rachetto = "Hunter Ratchet".

Plus, the backstory go Go! doesn't quite seem to match up perfectly with season 3, so there's room for this toy's bio to conflict with the character's portrayal in the third season of the cartoon.
